Let's divide 840140 by 52
Let's see how many times 52 fits into 840140.

Step 1:
8 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 84 / 52

Let's proceed to step 2:
52 goes into 84 1 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 52 from 84.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 320 / 52

Going ahead to step 3:
52 goes into 320 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtracting 312 from 320 leaves us with 8.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 81 / 52

Step 4:
52 can be fit into 81 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 161.0
Deduct 52 from 81 and we're left with 29.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 294 / 52

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 294 by 52, we get 5 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1615.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 260 from 294.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 340 / 52

On to step 6:
When dividing 340 by 52, we get 6 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16156.0
If we subtract 312 from 340, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 280 by 52, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16156.5
If we take 260 away from 280, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 200 by 52, we get 3 and a remainder of 44.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16156.53
Deduct 156 from 200 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
52 goes into 440 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16156.538
Subtracting 416 from 440 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 240 by 52, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16156.5384
Subtracting 208 from 240 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
52 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16156.53846
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 312 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
52 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16156.538461
Subtracting 52 from 80 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
52 can be fit into 280 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16156.5384615
If we take 260 away from 280, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
52 goes into 200 3 times with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 16156.53846153
Deduct 156 from 200 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 16156.53846153 with a balance of 4.4e-08.
